Samurai Ghost is one of two titles in Namco’s Genpei Tomaden series and the only one to come out in the West. Kagekiyo reappeared as a playable character in Namco X Capcom, but faded back into obscurity afterwards. ShiftyLook, the division in Namco Bandai in charge of re-imagining dormant IP, is about to revive Genpei Tomaden as Scar. This webcomic drops demons and has the late 80’s video game hero travel through time to fight samurai cyborgs.
